Dennis Lehane: Small Mercies (2023, HarperCollins Publishers)

A gritty, well-spun mystery

I don't read that much fiction, but I lived in the Boston area during the period in which this novel takes place. It was true to the peiod and a gritty, well-spun mystery with a suspenseful conclusion, like some of Lehane's other works (e.g. Gone Baby Gone, Mystic River).
